Keep “Victoria University of Wellington” name

Victoria University of Wellington is heading towards simplifying the university’s name to “University of Wellington.” This is an issue for various reasons, such as the cost of changing the name, and previous students who have graduated from the University with Victoria printed on their degree. This would also mean that the university would share the same initials as University of Waikato.

Wellington City Council has just approved this decision, however there are many students and outsiders who are not happy with this change and strongly want to keep the present name of “Victoria University of Wellington.”

If you believe that the university should keep their original name, please sign and share.
